It's that time of year. ⁠ ⁠ Fall is in the air, and we can think of no better artwork than Inka Essenhigh’s “Yellow Fall” (2007) to celebrate the weird, dynamic feeling that comes with the changes of this particular season. ⁠ ⁠ “Employing a mix of narration, symbolism and mystery, her paintings explore what is known about nature and what lurks beyond our perception,” @obert_r_shane writes in 'Landscape Painting Now.' He quotes the artist directly: “The unknown comes from the painting process, putting brush to canvas. I do have an agenda, and a world I want to create. I’m not interested in meaninglessness. I am looking for the feeling that I’m in collaboration with something that is separate from me, that I can access within my imagination.”⁠ ⁠ 'Landscape Painting Now: From Pop Abstraction to New Romanticism' is published by D.A.P. and edited by Todd Bradway with text by Barry Schwabsky, alongside contributions from Susan A. Van Scoy, Robert R. Shane and Louise Sørensen.⁠ ⁠ More via linkinbio⁠ ⁠ @inkaessenhigh #inkaessenhigh @tbradway @mr_tranquil_tranquil_waters @svanscoy12 @robert_r_shane @landscape_painting_now #landscapepaintingnow https://www.instagram.com/p/CkB5Ih5pYqN/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
